Comparison of phylogenetic trees of the genus Madascincus based on nDNA and mtDNA sequences (modified from Miralles and Vences 2013). Nuclear DNA tree inferred from BI analysis of concatenated BDNF, CMOS, PDC and RAG2 sequences compared to the mitochondrial DNA inferred from ND1 and 16S sequences (unpartitioned data set, posterior probabilities indicated for each node, see Miralles and Vences 2013 for details of analysis methods).
